Julie Walters stars in new Vision Express ad from Oliver
Vision Express has launched the second iteration of its ‘Vision Taken Seriously’ campaign, starring UK screen and stage icon Julie Walters. The awareness-raising initiative follows the optician’s ‘Eye Witness’ ad featuring Sir Trevor McDonald – its most successful creative ever.
The ad features T-Rex’s iconic track ‘I Love to Boogie’ and takes viewers through Julie Walters life, playing out scenes recounting some of Walters’ most iconic career highlights: Mrs Overall from Acorn Antiques, Educating Rita’s titular character, Sandra Wilkinson from Billy Elliot and Julie Walters & Friends’ hilarious ‘Two Soups’ sketch.
The film was directed by Kevin Thomas through Thomas Thomas.
